Chapter 89 It's better than nothing

It's hard not to be nervous. After all, A Dream is the result of the hard work of many people, and even He Haimei is in the hospital.

I don't know how the surgery went.

After everyone was driven to the dressing room, Ning Baicha asked with concern: "Assistant Director, is Director Chen not coming today?"

"After Teacher He's surgery is over." The assistant director looked at her, "If you are worried, we can video chat with Director Chen."

Without waiting for anyone to answer, the assistant director called Director Chen.

The video phone rang and someone answered it quickly.

Director Chen was waiting outside the operating room. Only a small picture could be seen on the small screen.

"You guys play your game well. Teacher He should be able to come out of the operating room in an hour. Then I will go to watch your game." Although Director Chen was smiling, the worried expression on his face betrayed his feelings.

Ning Baicha interrupted, "Okay, it doesn't matter if we can't make it back in time. Director Chen, don't worry, we will do our best."

Chen Ying and Chang Mengyu also followed suit.

"Yes, we will do our best."

"Please convey our concern for Teacher He."

After a few words, the video call was hung up.

The assistant director asked them all to get ready.

Everyone then went to look for their own clothes. The clothes for the Yi Meng crew were all pre-ordered, so they couldn't be considered high-end custom-made, but everyone's clothes were different, even the dancers had subtle differences.

After all, this drama is more of an ensemble drama, so it is difficult to have recurring characters.

But when everyone was changing clothes, Ning Baicha, Chen Ying and Chang Mengyu suddenly discovered that their clothes had been damaged.

"What's going on!" Chen Ying picked up her performance clothes, her face looked extremely ugly. She saw that the originally complete performance clothes was now in pieces with many big holes cut on it.

Chang Mengyu's expression changed and she went to get her performance clothes.

The difference is that her performance clothes were splashed with a lot of dirty things.

Seeing this scene, Ning Baicha felt a little relieved, but when she saw her performance clothes, her expression still changed several times.

Qiu has many performance costumes, after all, her character’s growth process is quite complicated.

She started out as a peasant woman, then became a dancer, and then transformed from a dancer into an underground party member. Finally, she sacrificed herself completely to save a boy.

The people who came to cause trouble probably didn't know the specific details, so they just picked out a particularly gorgeous piece of clothing and cut it, and by the way, they also soiled the piece of clothing that Qiu wore when she first entered the city as a peasant woman.

The three people looked at each other.

The assistant director heard their movements and immediately ran over, asking nervously, "What's wrong? What happened to you?"

Chen Ying almost cried: "Our performance costumes were destroyed!"

Chang Mengyu was still relatively calm, but her expression was obviously not looking good, and she was obviously angry.

"Destroyed?" The assistant director was stunned for a moment, then walked over and took the costumes from the three people. Anger flashed across his face, and he gritted his teeth, "I'll check the surveillance!"

Ning Baicha grabbed the assistant director and said, "Assistant director, we can't adjust the surveillance now."

"Why not!" The assistant director was angry and instantly got furious, "Do you know something?"

This statement simply implies that Ning Baicha is a traitor.

In fact, it was just a slip of the tongue by the assistant director. After all, anyone would be angry if the performance costumes were suddenly destroyed.

But Ning Baicha didn't think so. She blinked her eyes and said to the assistant director very calmly, "Assistant director, the most important thing now is for us to find new costumes. It won't be long before we go on stage, and our costumes are all pre-ordered."

The assistant director paused, calmed down a little, and realized that he had just said something wrong. He looked at Ning Baicha with some apology.

But Ning Baicha didn't care, and continued: "Even if we have another three or four hours, we won't be able to make the performance costumes in time."

Chen Ying was so angry that she gnashed her teeth and her eyes were gleaming with anger: "What should I do? Am I just going to give up like that? This is my first performance!"

Chang Mengyu also said: "This is also my first time to perform in Teacher He's play."

The assistant director groaned, "It's my fault too. I didn't prepare an extra set. I didn't know... it would be like this."

"Sister Mengyu, have you ever participated in any drama before? Can you lend us two sets of clothes?" Ning Baicha turned and asked Chang Mengyu.

The assistant director also slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, yes, it's still available. I'll go ask now to see if there's a suitable one, and I'll help you borrow one."

Chen Ying's eyes lit up with hope again. She looked at the assistant director with bright eyes and asked, "Can I really borrow it?"

"It's not easy to borrow." Chang Mengyu held the costume in her hand and told the truth, "Our costumes were designed by Mr. He himself. From the selection of materials to other things, there are many procedures. Anyway, it's not as simple as we think. The quality of each piece of clothing is visible to the naked eye. The three of us play different and important roles. It would be troublesome if we found that our clothes are different from everyone else's when we go on stage."

"The most important thing is that it can easily steal the limelight from the protagonist," said Xue Zixuan.

The other girl was the heroine. She thought for a moment and asked, "How about we, the crew of Yimeng, change the costumes?"

The assistant director clapped his hands: "Alright!"

"No!" Ning Baicha refused decisively. "When promoting the drama, our crew focused on our costumes and makeup, so the costumes of your protagonists must not be changed."

The female lead is played by an old actress named Sun Simiao who has performed in many drama shows.

Sun Simiao has a broad perspective and will not do anything just for a momentary pride. She frowned slightly and said, "But what should we do now? Are we just going to watch you guys go without clothes? But your roles are very important to the entire crew."

"This is also my first time participating in a drama troupe like Yimeng that can participate in competitions. I don't know if I can borrow clothes from my previous drama troupe." Chang Mengyu was also very nervous.

Chen Ying was about to cry. She stamped her feet and said, "If you give us a little more time, even one more day, I can find someone to drive them out."

"If we have one more day, those who want to stop our performance will have more time to do something." Ning Baicha smiled bitterly.

Everyone looked at each other, but they were helpless.

"It's better to move first than to do nothing." Ning Baicha said, "Sister Mengyu, please try to borrow some clothes first, just in case there is something you can wear."
